Military families often rely on personal experience to determine the best way to begin their hunt, but there are research tools designed to make the process simpler and more efficient. During the search, two factors remain steadfast when school shopping: timeliness and word-of-mouth reviews. 👉 Finding a home in a good school district is the #1 home search criteria! Personal experiences and referrals from friends are invaluable. Begin networking and exploring. Read blogs, Facebook pages, and neighborhood forums relevant to your city. Post a general inquiry about what the schools are like in the area, and the answers will pour in. Moms and dads love to talk about their kids’ lives! Examine the general trend and ignore the worst and best comments to formulate an opinion based on the overall tone of the reviews. Read more: https://hubs.la/Q02xh6R20 #PCS #militarylife

With so many options, how do you choose the loan that’s right for you? First, you need to determine what you need most. 👉 If you’re military and plan to sell in a few years when you PCS to your next duty station, you might prioritize a loan that starts with lower payments, as you can likely avoid the big balloon payment required further down the road. However, you risk assuming more debt if the home doesn’t sell as planned. 👉 If you plan on holding onto the home indefinitely (maybe turning it into a rental investment property), then a mortgage with a higher monthly payment and less interest overall might be best. This set up often allows you to build equity faster. https://hubs.la/Q02vgLt_0 To recap, when you’re looking at a home loan, here are the basics you need to compare: Loan Life. Interest Rate/Annual Percentage Rate (APR). Total Amount. Monthly Payment. #homeloan #mortgage

👉 Naval Base Kitsap Bangor area Realtor 👉 IDA BEAR "As a Military Spouse, married to a 30 Year Active Duty Service Member,*retiree as of 2014, I know 1st hand what it is like to relocate to known or unknown lands. We PCS'd many times over Jim's career. We have lived from coast to coast and had the blessing of 3 over-seas Duty Stations. We have personally owned/own 10 homes and have used our VA benefits to purchase the majority of those homes. We had the benefit of retiring in the Northwest where we both grew up. Finding homes that fit my customers needs and Real Estate/Investment goals is my greatest desire. Despite the all the moves I've been able to help my clients find the right place to live since 1985. Whether a rental, home purchase, home sale or an investment property is in your future, I'd LOVE to be of SERVICE to you." 👉 https://hubs.la/Q02wn9M00 #realestate #kitsap #PCS #WArealtor Ida Bear, Realtor
